| When I was a kid, I twisted my fingers in my hair a lot. Now that I'm almost thirty, I've stopped doing it so much. It mainly happened because my NT mate kept telling me to stop. It got so bad that I used to leave balls of hair all around the house, especially on the floor near our bed. My hair has ... |

| So I had a phone interview with a company on Wednesday. I kept trying each day after they told me they would send an email that would allow me to pick a time for an interview. I kept trying every single day, but today, when I get in it tells me that I am no longer being considered. The thing is, I w... |

| While I want to agree with you Willard, it's not fair that someone has to feel like they are being abused because I am having an issue I can't control. Even though I don't mean any of it, someone is still getting hurt because of me. That's the problem I'm stating here. And as for her, she's been hav... |

| So here's my issue. Every time my partner tries to explain to me what her issue is, or a problem in our relationship, for the first part of it as she starts talking I can follow her just fine. But then this buzzing starts in my head and things get fuzzy and I just can't understand much anymore, espe... |

Why is it so easy for me to be concerned and open with strangers but when it comes to someone who is close to me and cares for me I'm super distant and pushing them away all the time? Its like they have to fight for my atten... |

You do not need to check on me every ten minutes. "Why can you talk to people online with such ease but ha... |

| Being in a relationship means you need to spend time with other person. You can need and request personal space, but promising to do something with your significant other (SO) and then forgetting and doing it with someone else does not send a message that you truly care about your SO. Not keeping y... |

| I've been in a relationship with a wonderful girl for three years now, but the big issue I seem to be having is opening up to her more. The biggest issue we have is spending time together. She'll ask to do something with me and I get irritable and decline her often. Like for example she got a box co... |

So now someone close to me thinks I'm pretending to have Asperger's because I'm trying to fit under a label then brings in the "You're too old for that!" line. I guess I can't have an issue, now can I? I have to be complet... |
